Total Rewards Credit Card upgrade

What are they talking about a 50 dollar comp balance? Thanks for all of the comments. It is very helpful. I am fairly new to total rewards.

If you get the credit card you get a few things: 1) upgraded to Platinum status on your Total Rewards players card, 2) Buffet of Buffet pass for 2 (good for 6 months), and 3) $100 in Total Rewards credits on your players card (10,000 points). The $100 is awarded in 2 increments. 5,000 ($50) points after the first $250 in charges on your new credit card and 5,000 more after a total of $750 in charges (within 3 months of getting your card).

If you're interested in getting the credit card you'd better hurry - I think the offer ends pretty soon. Details can be found on the caesars.com website.

My card has a 5/16 date, not 3/14. I had the old card and I'm Diamond. Not sure if that makes a difference. I got the first 5,000 right away. I haven't charged to the $750 amount yet.

I got my card 7/24 and have made the necessary purchases to get the 10,000 points. It is now 9/6 and I have not been upgraded yet. Time to send TR a message.

Have you gone to a casino and asked for a new card?

Mine showed up about a week later (middle of last month).

I just signed up for my card 2 weeks ago and within about 3-4 days got an email of the upgrade to Platinum. I had forgotten all about that part actually. I haven't been to a casino to get a new card yet as there aren't any CET properties close, but I waited to be in the 6 month window of my next Vegas trip for the Buffet of buffets. Haven't charged my $750 yet as I've had the card less than a week LOL.

Has anyone gone over 6 months and tried to get the 24 hour buffet, mine expires in 20 days, and I cant make it out there till December.

Does anyone know if the added points to your account trigger a trip as it relates to a player's ADT? One would think not, but it's still CET, after all!
